Ive been looking at the novus line of helis for xmas gifts. I have a step daughter who wants a little heli. I was thinking of getting her the novus cx or eflite one. now I read the novus helis are clones of walkeras. And I can see that they are from the pics. I was thinking of getting the novus fp or the cp for myself. now I see the walkera versions are the same in those as well. does anyone know the best place to buy these kinds of little helis for the best prices? I have looked on ebay but its not always the best prices there

Don't want to start any type of firestorm here but I don't think Novus is a walkera clone I think they are Walkera's. I have ordered several times from WOW Hobbies. They are a US based supplier of Walkera. I have a Novus CP all the Walkera parts work and are a lot cheaper in cost.

I have 2 helimax heli's and like the previous poster stated, im not trying to start a storm, but the novus is just a rebranded walkera. Go with the walkera (less expensive, and better quality).
E-Flight also has some good heli's

Well I have been doing much research and found the heli-max novus line and certain walkera line helis are in fact the same helis just diffrent labeling. Today I ordered a walkera 4G3 metal head brushless. I was wanting the novus CP before I did my research. But I made up my mind on the walkera because I can get more for my $$.
